Thanks for this reaction to Angelina's video. This song was performed by the Barefoot Angel in a mourning tone for passing away of the legend Aretha Franklin "The Queen of Soul."

Amazing, amazing, amazing. She is pure Genius.

A natural born singer !!!

When she does a tribute sometimes she ends it abruptly. and sometimes she fades to black...when you get to her tribute to Freddie Mercury "The Show Must Go On" wait for the ending !!! She really hits a note...

Angelina did this to honor Aretha and I believe she dropped this video on the day of Aretha’s memorial.

The prodigies are always grateful to each other and here a living prodigy does it to a prodigy of the past, wonderful and unique Angelina, always excellent reactions Alex, good life ... Massimo

Thank you so much for support Angelina our internet daughter, niece, cousin, best friend. I have been watching videos from her and I feel like she is my little girl.

Sung as a memorial to the recent passing of Aretha. Not a time to be belting, but I imagine this being sung graveside among friends and family of Aretha. A gentle reminder of her greatness.

FYI whenever you see Angelina singing into this microphone she is at least 12 yrs old.

Beautiful 😊

She ended it abruptly like Aretha was taking away from us, to honor and pay tribute to her, God Bless!

Very astute observation markkleckner. When “Million Miles” first came out in 2020, many complained about how abruptly the song ended (the live studio version). At the time I thought it was done purposely. I’ve noticed since then that most of Angelina’s performances don’t end with the song just fading out. She is very deliberate in her choices.

This is a tribute just after Aretha’s death.

Angelina kept this rendition soft, subdued, and reverential out of R-E-S-P-E-C-T for the Queen of Soul.

this end is tribut for Areta

Angelina recorded this video just 3 days after Aretha Franklin's death as a tribute.

All her tributes for beloved people that have passed are expressing respect and sadness. She dresses in black, skips the smiles and waving, and ends abruptly with fading to black. When you will listen to it again expecting a heartfelt tribute, you will appreciate her genius and greatness even more 👣🧡🧡🙌❣️

This was a tribute to Aretha, but the style is more similar to that of the song's composer, Carole King, who had a quieter, poppier version than Aretha. King also utilized more vocal fry than Angelina, which is unusual, since AJ is noted for her fry. I agree with other posters that her tributes are great. (That WAS her ending sendoff...) Her Avicil post choked me up, and I didn't even know who Avicil was at the time.

Days after Aretha passed Angelina recorded this. An amazing tribute

Another of her vocal influences passed away - the tribute in respect of another iconic artist - closing to black

Oh she can do more! just you wait...

She definitely put some melancholy in it, that expressed her feeling of the loss of a legend. (I loved it.)

Her tributes to Artists who have passes are so respectful. Her tribute to her friend Avicii was especially moving. Thanks

That one is unforgettably moving..

Delicate, respectful and creative changes from someone who has the ability to blast this song out.

She left us wanting more...a tribute to Aretha, who was taken too soon. Thanks Alex, hope you enjoyed this.

To appreciate the genius of this it has to be understood that it is a very respectful tribute to Aretha Franklin: everything about it is a tribute including the fade to black.

It ends in 10secs of black screen... in respect to Aretha.

Yeah, I think she was “holding it down” a little because Aretha had just passed a few days before and this was sort of meant maybe as a tribute to her? We all know that she could put a lot more into it if she really wanted to? Maybe some day?

She definitely did and it was absolutely meant as a tribute... if you are familiar with her tribute songs you can see the connections (wearing black; often fading to black at the end....)

The girl is just the best

She could easily have belted this song out but, in a tribute to Aretha, that would have been very poor taste. This heartfelt homage is a testament to Angelinas extreme musical intelligence.

Respect. Angelina showing great respect to Aretha, with a soft and emotional version of "A Natural Woman", that quickly and abruptly fades to black at the end.

It was meant to end that way

Nice reaction👍🔥

Great reaction as always thank you 😃 wild bill from Worcester mass 😎

There is no other version out there! As others have said this was made just after Aretha passed as a solemn tribute.

All the other A-list artists who did a tribute to Aretha, emulated her well known powerful, bombastic style, whereas Angelina's genius is shown in how she turns the song into a soft, heartfelt rendition, proving that 'less can be more' at times.

At 12, Angelina made quite a few videos, either accompanied with an acoustic (Ivan Mendez) or with a back-up track. Here are some of the titles she did: California dreaming (TheMamas & the Papas), Stay (Rihana), A million years ago (Adele), Born to die (Lana Del Rey), It's a man's world (James Brown LIVE), Always on my mind (Elvis). That was the year when Angelina moved from Norway to L.A.

Her soft tone was a tribute to Aretha Franklin she was awesome 💯💯💯 Wild bill

This is such a quirky cover. It's why I'm a fan of Angelina Jordan: She looks at songs differently than other musicians. Great reaction, Alex!

😀😀😀😀😀

Ciao Alex, qui e straordinaria come sempre.

the mike she has keeps her from overpowering and distorting the sound

Your spoken audio is breaking up badly, the music and singing audio was fine.

Can’t fault Angelina, but I’m not keen on the song. 😊
